WARM MUSHROOM & BACON SALAD
Ingredients
10 – 15 white button or cremini mushrooms, sliced
4 – 5 slices bacon
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 sweet pepper, thinly sliced
½ red onion, thinly sliced
1 head iceberg or romaine lettuce, chopped (or any combo of salad greens)
½ tsp paprika
½ tsp red pepper flakes
Salt and black pepper
Directions
- Place bacon in a large sauté pan and cook until the fat is rendered and bacon cooked. Remove bacon and chop and set aside.
- Add the mushrooms to the same pan with the bacon fat. Cook for 1 minute. Season with a little salt and black pepper. Add the paprika and pepper flakes if using. Mix well.
- Add the red onions, garlic and sweet peppers. Cook just about another minute or two. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
- Spoon the warm mushroom mixture over the salad greens and serve. If vegetable mixture is too dry, drizzle with a little olive oil.
